[QUOTE="scourger, post: 3893153, member: 12328"] [Mission 8 – The Lost Legionnaires] After our long battle with an entire platoon of VC we were completely drained. We gathered up the dog tags of our dead and roused Apone enough to shamble through the jungle with very little help. Now it was time to start the long trek back to base. It was about this time when we were attacked by snipers. We killed several, but in our wounded condition it was better to just retreat from the rest. We got away from them and we hadn't gone very far when we heard a helicopter go over. It seemed that they may be looking for us. A few seconds later we heard gunfire and the horrible sound of a damaged engine. The huey was going down just a few hundred yards from our position. We quickly found a place to stash Apone and headed back at full speed to the crash site. When we arrived, the huey was on its side and under attack by a force of 6-8 VC, including a machinegun. Several minutes of combat ensued, before we were able to defeat our enemy. Now only the difficult part remained: rescuing the helicopter crew from across the river and getting us all back to base. I went alone into the jungle to retrieve Apone, while the doc forged the river to check on the helo crew. One pilot was dead, the other was badly hurt. Their gunner seemed fine and handled himself well in the combat and the rescue. Now doc had to swim the pilot back across the river with the gunners help. Sanchez was waiting on our side in case there was a problem. About two thirds of the way across the gunner went under. Doc helped the almost unconscious pilot ashore and Sanchez went in after the gunner. When he got the gunner to shore he was not breathing, but doc quickly brought him back. Later I asked doc if it ever bothered him to give mouth to mouth to strangers. He said when you close your eyes a mouth is a mouth and then he winked at me. That new guy’s a little weird. Anyway, that was about the time that I got back with Apone and now that we were all on the correct side of the river we headed back to base. Cpl. Jack Johnson [/QUOTE]
